Elliot Consulting Announces Strategic Alliance with Business
and Technology Strategies
Tampa, Fla. – June 2, 2008 — Elliot
Consulting Services (ECS), a leader in business continuity planning
and emergency preparedness services, proudly announces a strategic
partnership with Business and Technology Strategies (BTS), an organization
offering independent solution recommendations and cost expectations
in the areas of business continuity, disaster recovery, colocation,
managed services, telecommunications, and business development.
“The importance of BC/DR planning has become a primary topic
of conversation and action within many organizations and industries
with the realization of ultimate corporate survival at stake,” said
Steve Elliot, President and CEO of ECS. “While analysis, risk
identification, and mitigation strategies are of the utmost importance,
the discovery of these factors hold little value without the applicable
and accurate business and IT services, and service providers, in place
to address the 7x24 logistics of maintaining, recovering and/or relocating
mission-critical systems, applications, and data to ensure continued
information access and business operating structure.” “ By
integrating the resources of BTS into our services, we can provide
more capabilities in maintaining continuous daily operations and protecting
critical business operations and procedures.”
“ Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery (BC/DR) are vital
considerations for any organization, large or small, to ensure continued
operations, longevity, and ultimately survival ,” said Michael
K. Connolly, President and Co-Founder of BTS. “ In today’s
complex business and IT environments, the need for analysis and preplanning
of an organization’s existing structures, risks, and strategies
for mitigation is paramount in selecting and implementing not only
the appropriate services, but the proper service provider.” ECS’ expertise,
experience, and proprietary methodologies in BC/DR services have the
perfect synergy with BTS’s business model and provide our clients
with exacting business information from which to make more informed
decisions on necessary services for their business”.
